Luckily, The List has done the heavy lifting for you: we've scoured the Glasgow Film Festival brochure and cherry-picked the most interesting films, and arranged things so you can watch up to three of them on any day of the festival with no overlaps. We've also covered as many different festival strands as possible, so whether you're a fan of FrightFest (The Raid, Sat 25 Feb) or Fashion in Film (Bill Cunningham New York, Wed 22 & Fri 24 Feb), we'll have something for you.
